Tools you’ll need Graphic knife or scalpel. I use X-acto blades and knives, but some people prefer scalpels. Make sure the blades are SHARP. Dull blades cause accidents! I also prefer the “grip” handles.
Burnisher or bone folder. You will need some tool for making the crease scores. Bone folders work nicely (some letter openers work). I use a ball-pointed burnisher for my creases.
Transparent or masking tape.
A metal straightedge.
Light table. A portable light table is all that’s necessary. If you don’t have one, you can tape your sheets of paper to a window. Be sure to add an extra sheet or two to prevent the glass from getting scratched! I use a lap-style light table with a plexiglass top.

Techniques Blue lines indicate a CREASE or VALLEY FOLD. Use your burnisher/bone folder.
When cutting a point, make two separate cuts, approaching the sharpest point from both directions. Like this:
NOT like this:
Red lines indicate a Cut score or MOUNTAIN FOLD. Cut halfway through the paper.
Black lines indicate a Full cut through the paper.
To get the page ready for cutting: Go to the page of the design you want. Click print (current page). Tape the printed pattern to the back of the blank sheet you will be cutting/decorating. This is superior to taping all the sheets to the light table, as you can now rotate the paper instead of making you cut with an awkward arrangement of the hands and arms (another source of bad cutting and accidents!)
80 lb. Cover or Index is a good weight to use and is available at any office supply store.

Circus Rider tips&tricks
You can extend or eliminate this horn to turn the unicorn into a horse!
This foot is the only connection of horse and rider. Make sure it is straight or the rider will tip one way or another.

Final Word Pop-ups are great for parties!
Here are some tips on making your own: 1. Start with simple shapes. All complex shapes are made up from multiple simple shapes. 2. Make many sketches of the card before you start to cut 3. Avoid having a “tab” simply come out from the card to hold up your figure. Much of the satisfaction of good design follows by having nothing inherently “mechanical” about the mechanism that pops the card up. 4. Make a prototype, then set it down overnight. Come back to your work fresh and imagine the corrections and changes in three dimensions. 5. Be persistent! Anything can be made to pop-up! 6. Use grid paper to make your final patterns.
